The Donald Samull Classroom Herb Garden Grant

The Herb Society of America, as a recipient of a bequest from the estate of
Donald Samull, has established two herb garden grants for teachers in grades 3
through 6. Mr. Samull was an elementary school teacher who used his love of
herbs in the classroom with his 3rd-6th grade students. These grants will
ensure that his tradition of using herbs with students will continue for years
to come.

Public and/or private 3rd through 6th grade teachers, with classes of a
minimum of 15 students may apply for an indoor or an outdoor herb garden
grant.

The Herb Society of America will award indoor window sill herb gardens to four (4)
schools each year. The classrooms selected will
receive three (3) windowsill herb garden kits including pots, soil, seeds
and educational materials to use in the classroom. The Herb Society of America
will provide the educational materials.

The Herb Society of America will select five (5)
schools/classrooms to receive $200 "Seed Money" to establish an outdoor herb
garden. The funds may be used for supplies such as soil, plant trays,
containers, child or youth sized tools, etc. The school may need to seek
additional funding and support from other sources. The Herb Society of America
will provide the educational materials and herb seeds.
